Synopsis

Human beings are the most complex species in the world, and dealing with them is more difficult than dealing with any other creature, because this species has one of the most basic functions, which is camouflage. Everyone will hide their innermost feelings, whether deep or shallow, either for self-protection under good intentions, or for cunning before conquering. Like a chameleon, it disguises itself as the environment changes and does not easily show its true side. Whether it's your relative, friend, colleague, leader, or partner, sometimes you may feel that you know him well enough, only to find that he is just a familiar stranger. If you can't understand yourself or others, you can only live without knowing why. This is a book about understanding yourself and others. If a person can understand others, then this person is very smart; if a person can understand himself, then this person is very wise. Understanding yourself is the beginning of self-improvement, and understanding the people around you is the beginning of improving communication. Understanding yourself is an in-depth understanding and accurate positioning of yourself. Only by understanding others can you learn from their strengths.

Reader comments

Hey, this book is quite interesting! It reminds me that I always felt that I understood the people around me very well, but sometimes I found that they seemed to have another side. As the book says, people like to disguise themselves. But this book also tells us some ways to understand ourselves and others. What I find most interesting is the "self-reference effect," where we choose friends based on our own criteria. I once became a good friend with a person because I thought he was very humorous. This book seems to have given me some inspiration and helped me understand myself and others better. You can also take a look, maybe you will find something new!

Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger. If you understand others, you can better achieve your goals, master more information, better grasp opportunities, and complete tasks and ideals. However, there is no end to the learning of life. Only by continuing can you continue to be wonderful.
